Welcome to TCF Info

Welcome to TCF info where our aim is to offer mortgage brokers and intermediaries practical, user-friendly guidance on the FSA principle of ‘treating customers fairly’ (TCF) which underpins the Mortgage Market Review (MMR).

TCF Info was created in response to market research carried out amongst over 300 mortgage brokers and packagers into their understanding of TCF. Two key concerns raised by our TCF survey were:

‘What do I need to do on a day to day basis to implement TCF?’
‘How can I show that I’m treating customers fairly?’

These are precisely the types of information TCF Info aims to offer you, together with regular, helpful updates on The FSA’s Mortgage Market Review. Through these updates, blog and surveys we intend to give mortgage intermediaries the chance to ‘join the debate’ and affect the way the UK mortgage market develops.

How TCF Info can help you

Our plain English guides, checklists, tips and tools will help you understand and implement TCF principles with minimum fuss.
You can download any of our material for own-branding and/or staff training – for free!
Our Blog, News and Hot Topics section – including a regular TCF Info update and survey - will make it easier for you to keep abreast of developments in MMR and ‘join the debate’. These surveys are made available through the TCF Lender Forum to the CML and AMI, and will make a valuable contribution in developing their responses to the FSA. To be involved register here.
